How much would you pay for a custom box for a RC silvy/sierra. Holds two twelves, 4.2 cubes ported at 32 hz. Center console as well, requires removal of jack box, jack, wrench and center seat. Also have to modify the back baby hook cover thing(cut an inch off the bottom). Fully carpeted. Has some wear and tear on the carpet.

Box is solid, was designed in winISD and is guaranteed with the right subs/amp to blast the poo out of your pickup. It does make you move your seat up a bit, and me being 6'2 it sucks for long trips.

So what would you pay?

It's 3 months old and can hold subs up to 7 inches deep. I have my price at 400 dollars but that might be a little much. I'm at a loss, I want to redo my system and this has to go(takes up too much room in my house)

the center box in my truck (i posted awhile back) guy said it would have normally run around $400 with wood, glass, labor.......and it doesnt go behind the seats so for that big of a box used i would say $300 to $400 would be a fair price......

this thing used 3, 3/4 sheets of mdf, about 50 bucks worth of carpet and 2 months of my time, significant investment. what i'm going after is you put basically any sub suited for ported in there and it would kick ***, like type r's would ****

yeah that sounds about right, i got mine in about 1 and 1/2 sheets of 3/4 mdf and the rest glass.....i say the price is up to you, your the only one who knows how much time you put into it.....just make sure when people look to buy it they dont just think its a $400 "box" but they know how long it took you and all the materials you used....

id say 300-400 is fair but it's only worth what it's worth to the consumer.
